"Throughout my nearly 19-year career in prospect research and analysis, Apra has been a go-to source of information — not only in matters of prospect research — but across nearly every aspect of an integrated development operation. Best practices, professional networking opportunities, emerging technologies, strategic planning, and tips for more successful interdepartmental integration are all to be found among Apra resources and events."

—Craig Belanger, Director of Development Research, Biola University

"I always come away from the Apra conference with so many nuggets of information. I not only can share with the Research team but analytics and major gift officers and development too. I get so motivated to try new ideas out on the team. Thank you, Apra!"

—Shelly Van Peursem, Sanford Health Foundation

“The Apra conference provides a top-notch experience, not only offering high-quality sessions by subject matter experts but also tending to work/life balance by offering practical meditation and mindfulness resources in easy-to-access formats. Thank you, Apra. Well done.”
